To the best of my knowledge all the stanhopea names are correct. Whenever I'm not sure about a name I'll make a note in the post.
I'm a guy that likes to grow a few orchids, I'm not a botanist or horticulturalist so any friendly advice would be welcomed. If you think any of the species or hybrid names are incorrect or if you have any questions about a post please get in touch.
All images are my own. All are of my various stanhopea and related species and hybrids.

Stanhopea wardii "Jill"
Found from Nicaragua, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia and Venezuela in humid cloud forests from 800 to 2700 meters.
A fantastic species for Sydney conditions. It grows well in my bush house and flowers most years around March.
I believe this is a relatively common species in Australian collections but it took me years to finally get my hands on this great clone.
